So what things have reproduced in your tank? I'm mostly asking about stuff you didn't help along, but if were able to assist with some cool stuff feel free to post.

For me it would have to be Engineer Gobies. Other day noticed a few in the tank that are only a couple inches long where the adults are a good 7-8 inches. Also had damsels reproduce back in the day. Our clarkiis lay eggs like crazy but they just turn into food.

The poccilipora I have seems to show up all over the place. not sure if it's sexual or asexual reproduction, but I've got little buds everywhere in the tank.

My money. Thousands of dollars in this hobby and I'm happy when I get a nice frag to grow and sell for $15. /sigh

HAHA I should add that I am the king of Aptasia breeding, too. I should write a book. 3 Peppermint shrimp are taking care of those now though. I forgot, I also had a bubble tip anemone send off about 8 babies all at once a month or so ago. They are doing great and eating like pigs. Pretty cool stuff, I thought I might have Majanos at first.

Hi, I have Nassarius snails and baby Turbo Grazers quite often. I belive my wrasses eat most of them though.

My banggai cardinals. All I really did was net out the babies and feed them.

Well in years past a grew a very virulent breed of green hair algae. It was very healthy and reproduced in great numbers. And love 10000K metal halides.

But seriously I did have some tiny clams grow in my tank at some point. They kinda appeared out of nowhere. I believe they were reproducing. Because first I saw 1 then several over a couple years. They looked like little necks but only a quarter inch across. But I think my hermits eventually ate them.

And lotsa Clownfish eggs.

It's not SW, but these baby corys are very cute. The baby is to the bottom right of the adult, they spawned just 2 weeks ago--it is so coool !!
